This is because they couldn't chase up fines—I agree it's 30 years too late, and there is a culture of not paying fines in Thailand, but if they want to improve road safety, enforcement is one of the issues that needs to be addressed—it doesn't matter how big a fine is if you don't have to pay it. it is in most countries that have low death and ijury rates on their roads. Unfortunately for this to work, it will require a reform of the courts and how they enforce penalties AND a reform of the police—both of which are major constitutional issues.
